best way to use ubustream

[fuzzweed]

i've just added the ubustream plugin as probably the best way to get UK radio through GBPVR (as my FM tuner and DVB-T radio are not currently natively supported), and was wondering if anyone had any tips on a way to set it up for best functionality.
Because it opens up an external player if I switch focus back to gbpvr (fullscreen) I loose sight, and so control, of the player. One solution would be to map alt+tab to one of the remote buttons - but i was wondering if anyone used this plugin regularly and had found any other tidy (high WAF!) methods of handling it.
***edit*** ok, had a go with my idea but GBPVR doesn't seem to allow the alt+tab or {switch(*task*)} commands to function correctly when mapped to a Hauppauge remote - so a simple question; if I'm playing a stream in real player and change focus to GBPVR, how do I get back to realplayer at all????
